Question FD Dash into an FC?

Has anyone sucessfully swapped in an FD dash into the FC? I've decided to keep my FC, but I can't live with the interior. Any help?

not that Ive ever heard of....I believe all the mounting points, wiring and everything is different.

good luck on that one, but if you really can't live with the interior, Ill take it off your hands, Ive only got 6 FC's, whats the difference at this point?lol

Actually one person has. He goes by Dragon on here. His car is fully gutted though so he doesnt have door panels otherwise the FD dash would conflict with them. Search in the 20B forum for his NA 20B FC project to see the pics.

Well I guess I said that a little too drastically. I can live with the interior, I'd just prefer not too =)

Yes you can fit in there. The speedmachine Fc has a Fd dashboard.

I would think it would be just as easy and less expensive to go with any other dash on the market. FD interior bits are expensive and hard to come by. Why not try a Integra dash?
